This master plan should not be reversed in England before the Test series against India, which this veteran has shown
Cricket News Desk. Two senior analysts of the national cricket team of England, Nathan Lehman and Freddy Wilde, were rejected before the Test series against India. This move shows that the team will now depend less on the data. The use of England’s data in the match strategy has already reduced in the match strategy since Brendon McCullum’s Test team coach and recently became the White-Ball coach in 2022. Now the analysis is only used in limited form. According to a telegraph report, the top officials from England believe that the use of data is more effective in franchise cricket than international cricket, as the weaknesses of players at international level are less outspoken. This new approach puts players more responsibility for their preparation and achievement. The team’s meetings under McCullum leadership decrease. There are very few team meetings led by McCullum, which is usually a way to share analysis. Although players can always consult analysts, management wants the players to rely more on their intuition. Inner sources working with the IPL and the national team believe that the franchise teams have now become more data-conscious than England. Nathan Leams and Freddy are senior data analysts and white-ball analysts of wild England. These two now gradually end their relationship with the national team. He will not play against the West Indies later this month in the Limited Obswing series, which is the first series of Harry Brook’s captaincy in both formats of limited overs. Although England will continue to use data in the future, there will be no direct option of Lehman and wildlife, which will also reduce ECB costs. The role of the White Ball analyst will now be found at the Red Ball analyst and current test analyst Rupert Lewis will handle both roles. England is finding out in the data revolution, England is withdrawing from the data revolution brought under his leadership. Lehman has been associated with England in various roles since 2009. He is considered one of the most important faces of the data revolution in cricket. He had a special relationship with Eoin Morgan, who praised Lehman’s contribution to England’s victory in the ODI and 2022 T20 World Cup in 2019. The importance of data in setting up white ball is increasing and England’s dependence on analysis will be reduced after Morgan retires in 2022. Jose Butler was replaced by Morgan and now Harry Brook has been led in place of Butler. Since the T20 World Championships in 2022, only three out of the 15 games won, England has won only three of the 15 matches against Test teams during world events and has performed badly in the 2023 ODI World Cup, 2024 T20 World Cup and the Champions Trophy of this year. Lehman is currently a senior data analyst in the ECB, but in 2022 he began focusing more on his roles in KKR (IPL) and Multan Sultans (PSL) after leaving his full-time role with the white ball team. Both Lehman and Wilde will now be more active in foreign T20 leagues because of the growing importance of franchise cricket. Share this story -tags
